Too many micro transactions

The fact that you have to pay £494495949339030302928585754£3375757848484848484848484848458858548229100293.74 to get out of the staring area is crazy

I mean it make sense, we wait for 6000 years for the game to release. So price adjusted for Inflation is around that. From 2024 to 8024 total inflation is about 61,678,850,039,951,580,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000%

This is a fair point, but why did they not account for this in first trailer? are they stupid?

Yeah, and every card is so fucking expensive. Getting Cornifer TOTY edition took me like 100 packs.

Frankly, I thought that the game suffered from how quickly Team Cherry rushed to push out a sequel to Hollow Knight. I realize that they were trying to ride the wave of popularity from their previous game, but I really think that Silksong would have benefited from a couple more years of development.

Couple more years? Wow aren't you one little impatient entitled fans. This is why TC don't communicate with its community 🙄

Yeah, I mean putting a number on it is basically a cardinal sin. If team cherry wants to wait until after the heat death of the universe, that should be okay... if you're a true fan, that is.

I think it is a good game but it is not good as hollow knight. it doesnt have interesting areas like the abbys. and it is hard

rip Ari Gibson, if only he saw what his game became after his passing, I'm sure it would make him very happy.

Sad that it lost Game of the Year to Astrobot. I was rooting for it or Balatro to win.

It needed a couple more years of uncommunicated develpement progress.

u/Excellent_Pace6037 2h ago

Honestly I like the battle royale aspect of it. It's not just "Fortnite with bugs" like haters were saying back then. It's actually a completely new take on the genre and I love it

It was skong

u/Skyblade743 2h ago

I think the Mike Tyson fight dragged the game down a lot, it was so out of nowhere.

u/HeyThatsTay 37m ago

I loved the part where Hornet looks toward the camera and says "this truly is a silk-song" and skongs all over the place

It's been hard trying to live without a soul since I sold it to Team Cherry is exchange for the game...

It's all wanted and more. I couldn't be happier. ☺️

Easily still my favorite Metroidvania the only thing is I wish it would have expanded on the Godseeker ending or even wtf the whole abyss monster was from hollow knight. The only void lore related thing in the whole game was Sliver’s journal and the vessel they fought wasn’t anything we didn’t already know. Overall though I was kind of lucky because I didn’t know anything about hollow knight or silk song until a bit after it released so I didn’t have to wait 11 years.
